How to paint half wall?

Hello Vikram, I saw you asking how to paint half wall. I got my bedroom painted with two different paints in half-wall format, where one colour was light blue and the other, pastel pink. The method involves dividing the wall into sections for the respective paint colours. I'll describe the process below.

How to Do a Half Painted Wall?

Here is the method:

1. Begin by painting the lighter shade first on the half you’ve chosen. Let the half of the wall that has been painted to dry. 

2. After the section has completely dried, mask the other half of the wall.

3. See the portion where you want the colour to start. You can choose anywhere as there is no rule. I had chosen a little over half and a bit under two-thirds high. 

4. Make markings on the wall with a pencil and tape measure to keep the horizontal line straight. You can use a spirit level to see that you measure up in straight lines. 

5. Run the tape between the pencil marks, checking with the level as you go ahead.

6. After masking, start painting along the outlines with a paintbrush. 

7. Once the edges are painted, switch to a roller for the rest of the section.

8. After the second half of the wall has dried, begin with the second paint coat. 

9. Remove the masking tape while the paint is damp. 

This is how to paint a half wall. I hope this helps!

Trends are changing very fast these days. People, five years before, dreamt and planned what colour wall they want for their home. The decision was based on various factors like, will it go well with the curtains, will it go well with furniture and the most important question remains that will children like the colour? But, now in today’s time, this trend has also changed.  People are now exploring half wall paint ideas. These are done to increase the vibrancy and interest in the room. It makes an interesting perspective of the people to look at the half painted wall rather than a wall painted in just one colour. 

Nowadays people ask how to paint half wall or to be specific they ask questions like, how to paint half a wall in diagonal.

Half Wall Paint Ideas

  light shade (top preferably) and the other half with slight dark shade of the same color. It will give your wall a cohesive look.

  - You can use a neutral color like beige, cream, white, etc. preferably on the top side of the wall and get texture paint on the lower side of the wall. It will add interest and deepness to the wall.
